Acoustic Honeycomb Wall Panels

Ultra-flat aluminum honeycomb wall panels engineered for superior sound absorption. Featuring perforated, micro-perforated, and ultra-micro-perforated surfaces with up to 500,000 holes per square meter for exceptional acoustic performance in quiet environments.

Product Overview

Honeycomb Core Wall Panels

Acoustic wall panels built on an aluminum honeycomb core - engineered for exceptional flatness and structural rigidity. The honeycomb structure creates a lightweight yet incredibly stiff panel that maintains its flat surface over large spans, delivering perfectly flush wall installations even in demanding acoustic environments.

Exceptional Flatness

Honeycomb core provides superior dimensional stability. Panels remain perfectly flat even in large sizes (up to 1500x4000mm), with no oil-canning or warping - essential for high-end architectural wall applications.

Three Perforation Levels

Standard perforation (1.8-3.0mm), micro-perforation (0.8-1.0mm), and ultra-micro-perforation (0.4-0.6mm with 300,000-500,000 holes/m²). Each level offers different visual and acoustic characteristics.

Gravity Hook-On Installation

Panels are installed using a hook-on bracket system that leverages gravity for a naturally flat finish. The system compensates for minor wall irregularities, ensuring consistent panel alignment across the entire installation.

Acoustic Options

Three Perforation Levels

Ballesta acoustic honeycomb wall panels are available in three perforation levels - from visible perforation patterns to ultra-micro holes that are nearly invisible to the naked eye. All levels can be combined with acoustic fleece backing for enhanced sound absorption.

Standard Perforation

Visible round holes in staggered arrangement. Ideal for projects where acoustic performance is the primary concern and the perforated pattern contributes to the design aesthetic.

DiameterOpen AreaNRC (with fleece)
1.8mm~15%0.60-0.70
2.0mm~18%0.65-0.75
2.5mm~23%0.70-0.80
3.0mm~28%0.70-0.80

Micro-Perforation

Fine holes (0.8-1.0mm) that are subtle at normal viewing distances. Balances acoustic performance with a near-smooth surface appearance. Popular for premium office and hospitality applications.

DiameterOpen AreaNRC (with fleece)
0.8mm~3-5%0.50-0.60
1.0mm~5-8%0.55-0.65

Ultra-Micro-Perforation

Ultra-fine holes (0.4-0.6mm) delivering 300,000 to 500,000 holes per square meter. Holes are practically invisible to the naked eye, maintaining a perfectly smooth panel appearance while still providing Class B acoustic absorption.

DiameterHoles/m²NRC (with cavity)
0.4mm~500,0000.55-0.70
0.6mm~300,0000.55-0.70
Why Choose Acoustic Wall Panels

Six Key Advantages

Ballesta acoustic honeycomb wall panels deliver superior acoustic performance with exceptional flatness and architectural quality across commercial and public building projects.

Superior Flatness - Honeycomb Core

The aluminum honeycomb core provides unmatched dimensional stability. Unlike solid aluminum panels, honeycomb panels resist oil-canning and warping even in large sizes up to 1500x4000mm, ensuring pristine wall surfaces.

Ultra-Micro-Perforation Technology

Up to 500,000 sub-millimeter holes per square meter. Holes are invisible from normal viewing distances - the panel looks solid and smooth while still providing Class B acoustic absorption (NRC 0.55-0.70).

Exceptional Acoustic Performance

Three perforation levels deliver NRC ratings from 0.55 (ultra-micro) to 0.80 (standard perf with fleece). Sound environments are dramatically quieter - perfect for conference rooms, auditoriums, and open offices.

Gravity Hook-On Installation

The hook-on bracket system uses gravity to automatically align panels flush against the wall. No visible fasteners. The system compensates for uneven substrate surfaces, delivering consistent results every time.

Fire Safety & Durability

All-aluminum construction with Class A fire rating per ASTM E84 and EN 13501-1. No toxic fumes in fire conditions. Honeycomb panels are impact-resistant and dimensionally stable in varying humidity and temperature.

Unlimited Finish Options

Powder coating in any RAL or Pantone color, PVDF fluorocarbon for exterior-grade durability, anodized finishes (natural, bronze, black), and wood-grain transfer printing. Perforation does not limit finish choice.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes honeycomb wall panels different from solid aluminum panels?

Honeycomb core panels are dramatically flatter and more dimensionally stable than solid aluminum panels of equivalent weight. The hexagonal aluminum honeycomb core provides superior rigidity, eliminating oil-canning and warping even in large panel sizes. They are also lighter, reducing structural load on walls.

What is ultra-micro-perforation and why is it special?

Ultra-micro-perforation uses holes of 0.4-0.6mm diameter - smaller than a human hair - arranged in staggered patterns to achieve 300,000-500,000 holes per square meter. These holes are practically invisible from normal viewing distances, so the panel looks smooth and solid while still providing acoustic absorption equivalent to Class B (NRC 0.55-0.70).

How does the hook-on installation work?

Wall panels are fitted with brackets that hook onto corresponding rails mounted on the wall substrate. The weight of the panel pulls it tight against the wall through gravity, automatically ensuring flat alignment. No visible fasteners are needed, and the system tolerates minor irregularities in the wall substrate.

What NRC ratings can be achieved?

NRC ratings vary by configuration: Standard perforation (1.8-3.0mm) with acoustic fleece backing achieves NRC 0.70-0.80. Micro-perforation (0.8-1.0mm) with fleece achieves NRC 0.55-0.65. Ultra-micro-perforation (0.4-0.6mm) with an air cavity achieves NRC 0.55-0.70. Adding more cavity depth and backing material improves performance.

Are the panels suitable for exterior use?

Yes. With PVDF fluorocarbon coating and sealed edges, honeycomb wall panels are suitable for both interior and exterior cladding applications. The honeycomb core is corrosion-resistant and the panels can withstand temperature extremes without warping.

What is the fire rating?

All Ballesta aluminum honeycomb wall panels achieve Class A fire rating per ASTM E84 and EN 13501-1. The all-aluminum construction is non-combustible and emits no toxic fumes in fire conditions, making them suitable for all building occupancy types.
